3.2 second bid

uuuuuuhhg

My at work to-do list is so long, and that’s only the stuff on the top of my head! I guess that’s what happens when one is off sick for two days in a row. At least it’s FRRRIIIIDAY and best yet? Payday!

Remember how I talked about Ebay being pure evil? It’s okay, I have decided that I am putting a limit on items that I want. If I really wanted something that bad, I would have placed my bid like everyone else does — 3.2 seconds before the bid ended. Sneaky sneaky people. I ordered two shirts from two different ebay sellers and the one that I thought was going to be too small, fits perfectly fine.

My ebay auction is still going on until Monday afternoon. Would anyone be willing to buy from an ebay seller (ahem, me) that has zero feedback from selling anything? I have a few positive feedback from purchases, but not many as I’m only now getting used to working the whole thing. If it doesn’t end up selling I may give it away on here!

It’s this Lululemon Run: Race Tech tank top in size 8, so it’d fit a person Med/Large.

On my first top (that I kept) I asked the woman to not charge me much on shipping, coming from Florida. She estimated $9.00 shipping. I asked her to drop it to $5.00, but she said she shipped a package “to Canada” and it cost her $8.75. Well well well, when my package arrived the price on the sticker said $2.30!! What a jip. I was disappointed, but not in my top! My top is SUPER cute. Ya?

I won these Lululemon Empower crops, only because the highest bidder who outbid me again in the last 3.2 seconds couldn’t pay for the item so I got a second chance. If only there were a second chance on wedding programs that I have absolutely no use for that looked so nice, but were ridiculously priced! The crops haven’t arrived yet, they’re coming from British Columbia.

I think I’m obsessed. At least I’m only spending my paypal money? So much for No Buy Month…not that I said I was going to do it for March, but still.

Nasal voice

starbucks-02So I’m back at work and my body feels completely awake. My sinus’ are doing much better, but my head feels full — full of what I’m not exactly sure. I decided to whip out some trusty Starbucks Peppermint Hot Chocolate that I received from my Boyfriend’s sister for Christmas, and boy it tasted divine. I’d like some more, please. Maybe I’ll go get some during lunch hour with the gift certificate that I won from Jeanine. Or is that only a seasonal flavor? Either way, the hazelnut latte sounds pretty fan-tabulous right now too. Actually, any caffeine does at this point.

Want to see mister trouble-kins? Since I haven’t posted any of him in a while here’s three cute photos of Alfie while I was home with him on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Adorbs, right? They’re tiny thumbnail view, so you can click to enlarge them.

When I was off ill the past few days, I received a package (in purple) from Lululemon that I ordered online the other day. Maybe I’ll take a few pictures later and review it once I get to wear it to a fitness class (since I’m a total gimp at the gym and need to be told what to do! LOL).

Oh hey guys and gals — don’t forget to enter my Smashbox contest as it ends tomorrow afternoon.

Moving on up.

After I pay off my car, I need something else to save for. I like that about my personality – I’m an aggressive money saver or pay-off’er. I have decided that I will save for a down payment on a home. The boyf and I have been talking and we think that’s the best option. However, we still don’t know where we’re going to live. Right now we’re in Southern Ontario, and we almost want to pack up and move to Northern Ontario where all of our friends are.  I’m basically up for anything, as right now we have been living here for close to five years and still haven’t made any close friends.

I already have a few things picked out in a home that are sort of must-haves. I desperately want a dishwasher. It would be very nice to have two sinks in the bathroom, and I want a fireplace. Scott’s must-have’s are a two car garage! I swear, we have million dollar taste. None of us really requires that we get Undermount Granite Sinks, thankfully. I bet those are expensive!

What are your must-have’s in a home?
